Romantic Hotels in Amsterdam

"1. **Room:** A bit small, but perfectly adequate for one person. It had air conditioning, an electric kettle (which looked like blue and white porcelain), adjustable lighting, and more. The facilities were relatively new and well-maintained, with no hidden spots for dirt. If I indicated I didn't need my room cleaned by hanging the 'green' eco-friendly sign, they wouldn't clean it, and in return, I'd get a soft drink voucher for the bar. I used a voucher once to get a sparkling juice from the 2nd-floor bar. **Problem:** Replenishing essential supplies was inconsistent. The tissue box wasn't refilled when I checked in, with only a few tissues left. I mentioned it in the evening and again the next morning, but it wasn't until I went to the front desk a second time on the next evening that it was finally restocked. The same went for towels; I asked twice, and they still weren't changed a day later. Finally, on the third attempt at the front desk, they were replaced. This only happened when I dealt with Southeast Asian front desk staff; when I spoke to European staff, replacements arrived within 10 minutes. Towels and bathrobes also had to be requested; if you didn't ask, you wouldn't get them. The provided bedding, towels, and bathrobes were all quite old, not bright white, and not starched. 2. **Breakfast:** The food was plentiful, the service warm, and food items were refilled promptly, as were used dishes cleared away quickly. Again, the Southeast Asian staff weren't as enthusiastic and didn't greet me as readily, whereas the European staff were equally pleasant to everyone. The restaurant is on the 17th floor with great views. It's quite large, beautifully decorated, and has two serving stations, which is very convenient. There are also two large outdoor terraces perfect for enjoying the view or dining al fresco. On my check-out day, after breakfast, I bid farewell to the European staff, and they even gave me a special hotel lollipop, saying they hoped I'd visit again. 3. The second floor has a lovely, comfortable lounge area and a bar with a somewhat 'creative/cultural' aesthetic in its decor. 4. In spring, there's a direct bus to Keukenhof from the bus plaza below the hotel. You can buy round-trip tickets online. If you're staying at or near the hotel, you can take the bus directly, saving you a trip to Central Station. 5. **Transportation:** There are several train, metro, and bus options nearby. Given how punctual public transport is in the Netherlands, it's very easy to plan your sightseeing. All stations are within a few minutes' walk. 6. **Supermarket and Restaurants:** There's a Dirk supermarket a few minutes away. Near the hotel, there are various restaurants, including Western options like Italian, and Southeast Asian cuisine."

"My stay here was incredibly satisfying. I had an unexpected train cancellation and ended up checking in past midnight, but I was warmly welcomed by the 24-hour front desk, which was a huge relief. The bed in my room was very spacious and comfortable. Aside from disposable items, the room was well-equipped with many necessities. There were plenty of hangers, which was convenient, and I especially appreciated the iron – it allowed me to press my wrinkled clothes after a long journey. There was a coffee machine in the room, so I could make coffee in the morning, and a bottle of water was also provided. Additionally, there was a bar within the hotel, and I was given a voucher to use there. They also mentioned breakfast, but I didn't get to try it, so I can't comment on that. While it's a bit far from Amsterdam Centraal Station, it's easily accessible by tram. In fact, its proximity to the Van Gogh Museum and other nearby museums makes it a great location for sightseeing. It was also nice for walking around the neighborhood. My only minor complaint is that the shower head holder in my room didn't fit properly and needs to be replaced. Other than that, I highly recommend this place – it was a very satisfying stay!"

"Great location and staff, but poor cleanliness I liked this hotel overall, mainly because of its fantastic location right in the center of Amsterdam. It was extremely convenient for walking around the city, and all the main attractions are very close by. The staff was friendly, multilingual, and helpful with everything. They gave us great recommendations on where to go and even lent us an umbrella for the rain. Our room on the 4th floor was very spacious, especially by Amsterdam standards. However, the cleanliness was a major disappointment. The room was poorly cleaned: there was a lot of dust, the closets were dirty, and the coffee machine was so filthy that we didn't even want to use it. My overall impression is not bad, but due to the lack of cleanliness, I would not stay at this hotel again."

"Standard room, what you'd expect from a chain hotel. The lobby area was nice and spacious, with a bar that looked quite nice too. Huge (paid) parking area with two levels. It's close to a metro station, but it really is quite far from everything else. If you are planning to visit the city, I'd highly recommend to stay more closer to the city center because after late night, you'll have to get an expensive Taxi to come back. No late night tram stops nearby. The rooms were typical in size, bathroom, amenities, etc. They stored our bags until late evening, which we appreciated. There is a small kiosk that you can buy munchees if you take on a Brocolli adventure, with cheap chocolates and chips."

"The location might seem a bit far out, but it's right next to the LRT station, making it even more convenient to get to the city center than staying in the city center itself. The downside is there aren't many dining options nearby, just a McDonald's across the street. The hotel facilities are extremely modern, perfect for younger guests. The elevators are super cool – you select your floor on an external digital screen, and it automatically assigns one to you. This is really convenient, but it took me a while to figure it out on my first stay. The underground parking is very high-tech, but the parking fee isn't cheap at 25 a night."

"The hotel was really nice and clean. The area isn’t touristy, so it’s fairly quiet and nice, but very well reachable by metro: only 13 min subway ride to central station , and the station is a short walk away. Amstel train station is also nearby, which is very convenient. The bed is very comfortable, I loved the towels, which were very soft and fluffy. I found the motion activated light in the bathroom a little annoying, especially since it often went off while I was showering, because no movement could be detected, so I had to open the shower cabine to set the light back on. We did not try breakfast as 23 euro per person seemed a little overpriced. Overall, I found the value good for money. The stay was very comfortable and enjoyable, and I’d definitely recommend the hotel."

"We had a pleasant stay at the hotel which is beautifully decorated and maintained. The staff were kind enough to check us in early and upgraded our room, however we were woke the next morning by construction. The staff helped us to change rooms but there was no apology for the inconvenience. Our new room was comfortable apart from the noise from upstairs (it’s an old building so that’s expected) and a high pitch whistle coming from the vent near to the windows. As I said, the hotel is decorated beautifully, not just the lobby but also the bar, the lounge and the rooms. Some of the electrics are a little old (hairdryer, no USB plugs) but apart from this, everything is superb. The location is excellent for roaming the city, and the complimentary drinks, cakes and biscuits throughout the day were a lovely touch. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others."

"its 15 minutes walk from nearest metro, and it's also difficult to get by unless u rent a bicycle. however, the price is cheap even considering its shorthands will make do if you aren't obssessed with cleanliness. The view is good too."

"The hotel was centrally located and there are great transport links to attractions. However, the room we booked did not feel like a ‘4-star’ hotel. The executive queen room was small and it felt like we were in university halls. When we arrived the basin was clogged, which was fixed after we spoke to the staff. Then we realized the shower drains were also clogged so the staff helpfully fixed that the day after. However, the air con was malfunctioning even though we had informed the staff about it. There was considerable dust all over the desk and in the gap between the wall and bed when we checked in. I’d be hesitant to rebook with this hotel when I’m back in Amsterdam ."

"I have a very low expectation when booking while reading through all the reviews. Henderick's is a real gem in Amsterdam. The room was spacious, clean, organised with all facilities required. They use Ritual... shampoo and hand washer. They also have an espresso machine, robe in hotel. They also have luggage storage for your convenience. Free coffee/tea and 1 welcome drink = beer/ cocktail/ wine, you named it. I highly highly recommend this hotel."
